DS1302 driver for powerpc
Hi, Thanks for your help. But I also do not have this driver for 83xx. (as my linux is comes from Montavista) Could you mind providing me a link / or a source of such driver for me to reference ? Thanks.

There doesn't seem to be any DS1302 support for ppc available. However, even if there were a platform with DS1302 support you'd be in the same boat as the low-level support for cris. Support for DS1302 has a glue layer that's board-specific based on what GPIO pins are used to drive it. So if you had this driver for another PPC system like 83xx you'd still have no better starting point than the cris ds1302 driver glue since the GPIO mechanism/connection is different. Porting the board-specific glue from arch/cris/drivers/ds1302.c to 4xx GPIO is trivial to do though. -Matt This message (including any attachments) is for the named addressee(s)'s use only.

Hi, That's good. I also started to work on it. Thanks for your quick reply.

DS1302 driver for powerpc
Hi all, I am now doing a STB project and the development board uses a DS1302 (trickle charge timekeeping chip) as a RTC. Our board is a IBM PPC405EP with a linux kernel 2.4.20 running on it. And the DS1302 is controlled by 2 GPIO pins instead of I2C. I would like to ask are there any porting of DS1302 support under ppc architecture? (I can only find DS1302 is supported under cris architecture.) Thanks all. Best regards, Lo Chun Chung This message (including any attachments) is for the named addressee(s)'s use only.
